All-American & Adorable: The Jones Family Photo Session

I tend to photograph a lot of Jones Families :o) This is actually my second in two weeks! This Jones family is such an All-American one. I love their angelic blonde hair, beautiful eyes! They're so perfect -- two parents, two kids, and even two dogs!

We did this session at a new place for me Tyrst Falls outside of Kearney. The falls itself was nice, but I fell in love with the logs, moss, and boulders that line the water front. They also had a nice assortment of wild flowers and greenery. I'm really thinking of doing my boys' fall session here.

Enjoy!

Picture Perfect - The Jones Family Session Preview

Aren't they just a picture of perfection? We went to Loose Park for this photoshoot, a first for me, and it was just lovely. What was even more lovelier (is that how you spell it?!) were the girls in their white and navy dresses and how adorable the whole family looked. As we walked through the park looking for places to do our session, people were just enamoured with this family and the cute little girls in white. I love these photos. Enjoy!

Jay's Headshots

I've known Jay and his family since I was in high school, so it's fun working for him and getting him some headshots for his company - National Beef. He's so fun, and I had a few helpers that day (ahem, the husband was home late) and Jay was a trooper...very sweet with Ashton. Enjoy!

Oh, I Love Babies...

The Carter's newest edition is just a doll! We had such a good time oohing and aaahing over him during this shoot. He looks just like older brother and daddy and was just the best baby - no crying, no fussing, and well, just a bit of spit-up (good thing the black backdrop is washable!) Enjoy!

Reception Time

These are some candids and some not-so-candids from John and Joanna's reception :o) Enjoy! It was fun to do something out of my comfort-zone.

A Beautiful Bridal Party

Joanna and John are such a cute couple. They are very sweet together and their love really shows. It was fun getting to know them better during this wedding day session and meet their charming children. Reception shots to follow.

Photography isn't supposed to be so fun!

The Matson's really made my job, well, not a job. They are such a fun familiy, that I really feel like taking their picture is a pleasure...and they pay me! Woohoo!

Their personalities are as bold as the colors of their shirts. I think it shows from these pictures, too. It was a pleasure and I hope to "work" for you guys again!

The Adorable Arnolds

We had a fun time working the Arnolds. They had the most incredible backyard to work with, and the fountain in the front. Wow. The backdrop, though, was easily overshadowed with the cute kids! What beautiful blue eyes and white-blonde hair. They have German ancestry, and I think you can tell. I love the baby, too. He is just at the perfect age of smiles and coos. Do you think they would miss him? I could use a third! Just kidding, guys!

Enjoy!
